Concord Women’s Chorus

November 15, 2022

Concord Women’s Chorus, fostering the power of women’s voices in song, is readying its holiday season concert, “Songs of Peace and Promise.”  

“Songs of Peace and Promise,” offers a celebration of the wintry season of light in song through familiar holiday tunes, poignant Chanukah pieces and a mash-up of mass movements.  The program features creative arrangements of “Coventry Carol”, “I Saw Three Ships,” and other beloved works from composers including Gabriel Fauré, Nicola Porpora, Cécile Chaminade, Z. Randall Stroope, and Bob Chilcott. A carol sing welcomes the audience to raise their voices, joining in on seasonal favorites including “Silver Bells,” “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” and “The First Noel.”

“Songs of Peace and Promise” will be held on Saturday, Dec. 17, 4 p.m., at Trinity Episcopal Church, 81 Elm St. The performance is conducted by CWC Artistic Director Jane Ring Frank, with accompaniment by Alexander Lane, piano, and Beth Welty, violin.

Tickets are $25 adults, $20 seniors and students, $5 children ages 12 and under,  available at concordwomenschorus.org and at the door.  Masks are required for all attendees.  Trinity Episcopal Church is fully accessible.  For more information, performance details or to join Concord Women’s Chorus, email Chorus Manager Patsy Eickelberg at manager@concordwomenschorus.org, visit concordwomenschorus.org, or follow Concord Women’s Chorus on Facebook and Instagram.
